I'm Here

I have been a bit preoccupied. Two weeks since my last post...not good. I need to get a new battery for my camera which obviously cuts down on the amount of pictures I take. Which equals my post quantity dwindling down to nothing. The weekend before I had a rummage sale. The garage is just finally back in order. My father-in-law can now park in the garage when he comes. Old habits die hard. I think that drove him nuts that he couldn't park in there when he was here for a couple of hours.

Does anyone else have a child that hides food or the wrappers from food? Last night she threw a granola bar wrapper behind the TV stand. Unless we have a ghost she had food all over the living room last night when I came in at 11pm. My husband was in the shower and tried to wake my little darling from a dead sleep to make her pick it up. Oh I was so irritated. It was like she took half the box of Lucky Charms and dumped them all over the carpet. It's shag carpeting...no lie. Plus she has a box of beads to make bracelets and necklaces and a good handful of them were in the carpet as well. I don't get it. I don't take my food and throw it all over and hide candy bar wrappers under the recliner. Then I saw a tube of Go-gurt empty on the floor in front of the chair. I'm done buying that stuff. I am just a wee bit frustrated with her.

Kurt is out in the barn pulling a calf. I am feeding five heifer calves right now. He's back in and she had a bull calf. That is okay by me. As long as I get a good price for him, when we sell him on Monday. I have been saving my bull calf money for Christmas. $42 so far. If I get that much or more for each calf, I should be okay.

I better go get some bills paid. Maybe tomorrow I will be someone where I can buy a camera battery. I'll try and get back on track.

About Me

Welcome to our farm, Lime-Acres Registered Holsteins located in the heart of America's Dairyland. I love cows, my husband, my daughter, reading, relaxing, and the Lord! I work seasonally in the grain department of our local coop and help my husband milk our cows three times a day. Cooking, baking, photography, showing our dairy cattle, rummaging, 4-H, and getting away from the farm are other things I enjoy doing. Feel free to ask any questions and I'll do my best to answer.
